Hi, I need a report of all the datasets in my organization and its parameters such as id, name, Last refreshed date, owner, users etc.
I am not an admin on the workspaces but have power Bi admin role.
I tried the REST API (GET https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/datasets) and was able to get the details of the datasets that I am the owner of but not others.
1) How do I add myself as an admin to all of the worspaces easily. we have about 10,000 workspaces.
2) For each dataset, how do I get the users, Last sucessful refresh, owner etc. ( like in a for loop ).
I am novice to this admin role and still finding my way around. Any help is greatly appreciated.
My end goal is to create a report dashboard of all the workspaces with its reports and users and their access level, Gateway connections, Datasets and users in my tenant in a single stop. Any help / ideas from other experienced admins towards reaching my goal are welcome.
Thanks !

Hey @BarGraph2020 ,
it's not That easy to "map" a large Power BI environment, I recommend this article as it describes how to use the newly released Admin APIs https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/announcing-new-admin-apis-and-service-principal-authenticat...
It's Not Necessaire to be an Admin of a workspace, using these APIs.
Hopefully, this provides an idea on how to tackle your challenge.

Tom
